Given : Prime number
To Find : Show that there are infinitely many positive primes.
Solution:
Let say there are finite prime numbers
P₁ , P₂ , . . . , Pₙ
x = 1 + P₁ P₂. . . . .Pₙ
P₁ P₂. . . . .Pₙ is divisible by all primes P₁ , P₂ , . . . , Pₙ
hence x = 1 + P₁ P₂. . . . .Pₙ is not divisible by any of P₁ , P₂ , . . . , Pₙ
=> x is a prime number
or x has prime divisor other than P₁ , P₂ , . . . , Pₙ
This contradicts our assumptions
Hence we can sat prime numbers are not finite
and there are infinitely many positive primes
